REVIEW: Flamin’ Hot Ruffles

Ruffles Flamin’ Hot Chips

Description: Ruffles Flamin’ Hot Chips have the same deliciously tangy seasoning as the GOAT Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. If you like that seasoning like most of the world, these chips are a safe bet to satisfy. However, one key difference I noted is that the heat comes on much later. With the light grease of the chips, Flamin’ Hot Ruffles doesn’t seem to reach the same fiery apex that Flamin’ Hot Cheetos do. I definitely prefer the pairing with the corn-based Cheeto over the potato chip format.

That comparison notwithstanding, Flamin’ Hot Ruffles are still a good combination of heat, garlic & onion, and even a mild cheesiness from some Romano cheese. Helping their cause is the fact that Ruffles will forever and always destroy plain chips. The ridges do a damn good job holding as much seasoning as possible on every chip, even if they’re messy AF.
